General elections are due to be held in Haiti in February 2026.[1][2][3] The parliamentary elections had originally been scheduled for 27 October 2019,[4] but were postponed to 26 September 2021,[5] and then again to 7 November 2021,[6] when wider elections were planned to elect the president and Parliament, alongside a constitutional referendum.[7] However, in September 2021 they were postponed again following the dismissal of the members of the Provisional Electoral Council by acting prime minister Ariel Henry.[8] Henry later stated that he hoped to hold the elections in early 2022.[9] On 8 February 2022, he called for renewed efforts to organize elections.[10] In December 2022, he signed an agreement to hold the elections in 2023, but stated in February 2024 that they will be held once the security situation was under control. Henry later committed to hold the elections by August 2025, but resigned in April 2024 to make way for a Transitional Presidential Council, which is expected to hold the presidential election in early 2026.
